Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Has anyone had success when Hypothyroid?

I know of people who know people with hypothyroidism but I was just wondering if there have been any successful pregnancies with this condition? I was not producing enough hormones for my baby! I have been on Synthroid for 2 weeks now!

Re: Has anyone had success when Hypothyroid?

  • my mom, my sister, and a bunch of my friends have a hypo and had successful pregnancies. A hypo isnt a problem if it is controlled. I have a hypo as well but it has nothing to do with me losing the baby because it was controlled. I am glad they are getting yours in check :)

    Married 11/27/09 and TTC right away

  • I would ask the girls on PgAL since most of the ladies here aren't going to have success stories just yet.

    For what its worth I also was just diagnosed as hypothyroid a few months ago and my RE suspects it played a role in my losses. From all of my research I have found that when it is treated and under control the chance of a miscarriage goes back down to normal.  Its a scary diagnosis but I took it as a huge blessing...finally an answer and something that can be treated.

    Good luck!

    I'm sorry for your loss.  When properly treated (and monitored regularly throughout the pregnancy to adjust levels if needed), the rate of success for pregnancies with hypothyroidism is just as the same as the rest of the population.  There is hope!

  • Yes! There is hope! Once you are medicated and your numbers are regulated, there is no reason why it should cause a problem! I am also hypothyroid and on synthroid and I have a 4 month old son. It took us a while to have him but here he is!

  • i'm sorry for your loss.

    i've had hypothyroid for almost 10 years now. we had one m/c (my levels were normal), one healthy baby, and now this one. she has anenecephaly, but nothing caused from my thyroid.

    just make sure you get your levels tested often. i usually get checked every 6 months. while pregnant it's been every 6 weeks.

    it's definitely possible!
